The conference committee of the two
houses Of congress on the bills repeal
ing the pre-emptlon, timber culture and

agreement than ever, although il was
hoped that some basis for settlement
of the differences between the two
houses would be reached. The impress

with the bills this session. There is de

1ntsr.state Commerce R,ll.

New York, Feb. 1--Ee Times this
morning says: Although the presidents
of the trunk lines have agreed TO meet
tomorrow for the purpose of discussing
the interstate commerce bill, 1t is al.
together unlikely that they will arrive 81
q definite conclusion regarding the
meaning of some of its most vital pro.
visions, Most of them have already
talked over the biii. They gave the
greater part of two days to tine work
and were assisted by eight lawyers oil
reconizsd ability. They had previously
discussed the pill in a desnltory fashion
bnt Thursday and Friday of last weeh
they devoted their time to close study ol
its provisions and then waited patiently
for the conclusion arrived OF by thel,
counsel. The eight legal gentlemen were
instructed to state their defnition of the
ambiguous provisions in it. They were
not to pick haws in 1t, but simply to
explain its meaning on two points con.
srdered vital by the railroad managers
The lawyers were evenly divided. -Four
| construed them in one way and four in
another. The result was not vxactly
satisfactory to the railroad presidents
The latter had previously considered
the bill on par with the Fifteen pnzzle,'
but after hearing the two sets of lega
opinions they decided that congress has
the oall not only on the inventor Of tht
"fifteen puzzle" but upon all puzzles ol
ancient or modern times. In view of the
result Of this meeting it is not expected
that to-morrow's meeting will define {
policy that ell the roads will be satisfied
to adopt. The general opinion among
railroad men is that President CLEVELAND
will sign the bill, but there are many
who think he may return it with re-
quest that its ambiguous provisions bt
Explained; or he may say, as Presiaen
Depe1, Of the New York Central, pu,
it yesterday: "Drsft an interstate com
mefce bill in plain English and / vii
sign it." If the bill is signed IN its presen
shape the commissioners will be required
by the railroads to constIue its doubtful
provisions. How they should be able *
accomplish the task that has beer
found impossible by eminent lawyers il
not clear to the railroads. but the latter
will accept the performance OF such ,
feat rather than run the risk Of working
under the advice OF their own counsel.

mlssloners of Lawrence county to issue
warrants tor current expenses because a
recent congressional law prohibits coun-
ties from lncurring liabilities beyond
four per cent OF their assessed valuation.
Lawrence county has already exceeded
that limit. The sheriff OF that county
brought action against the county, in
the district court, to recover the amount
OF his January bill, and Judge Thomas,
of the district court, has rendered the
following decision in the case:
/ must confess that at the threshold
OF this investigation 1 WAS seemingly

parantly unsurmonntable provisions OF
the act uf congress referred to and on
which it is relied by counsel for re-
sponde.t to defeat the claim OF the APP
pellant; and during the discussion of
counsel l have frequently been made to

that is said to intervene between his
satanic majesty and the deep blue sea

from and the unpleasant consequences
incident thereto. ls not as clear or plain

hold that the clain, Of the appellant is
not debt in the ordinary sense OF the
word-not incurred by the county or
commissioners, the financial agent OF
the county-but it is debt placed upon
ths county without it's consent by oper-
alton of law in existence previous to
the passage of the act by congress. do
not mean to hold that the commissioners
of this county have any right or power
to incur any indebtedness whatever. Il
think that when the law imposes duty
upon the officers of county for the pur.
pose OF protecting society and MAINTAIN,
ing peace and good order. and prescribes
q severe penalty against such officers fol
failure to discharge such duties, and
fixes his fees ana emoluments for such

ty the obligations to defra5

The bill which congress proposes to
pass to arm the president With authority
to retaliate upon the Canadians for it's
prohibition of fishing operations by
Americans is creating unusual excite.
ment on the Canadian 81 1e. Our CANA
dian neighbors are said to be already
preparing for war and though they are
decidedly premature IN their hostile
demonstration The act shows an interes.
ting intensity OF feeling against this
government and its people. A member
of the Dafferin guards, while Oh areceIt
visit in Buffalo said, regarding the
preparations made through lower Cana
de in the expectation of war beiDg,d
clared, that few days ago every PEN
sioner OF the imperial service was
ordered under arms to be ready to move
to the front at moments notice. The
order came from London. At Brantford
there are ! 900 of the veterans and they
are drilling daily. At Hamilton theke
are 600 and at various other points are
enough men to furnish standing army
of 5000 men at an hours notice. The
excitement, this informant saye, is great,
and through all of the lower peninsula
the militia ia getting in readiness foi
esa..:se service. On the United States
side OF the dividing line these prepare.
tions produce fever,sh anexity in view
OF the utterly defenseless condition ol
the lake border. All our large citiet
along the lakes are at the mercy Of BIt
ish war ships and the entire line is open
to an AMY OF invasion.
There is widely expressed deter
| mination to pass the senate bill in ths
house without amendments and withon
delay The deposition il to resent ths
long continued insults OF the British
government and in this concluslon there
IL hardly dissenting voice in congress
or out OF congress-. II the movemen
does not result in war it will result in |
better fisheries treaty.

Many diseases, especially those of the ner-
